Flirting Mistakes 8 Things Not To DoFlirting Mistakes 8 Things Not To Doby Todd Peterson, Editor of HighWorld.comBeing a good flirt has as much to do with not doing the wrong things as it does with doing the right things. Flirting is difficult because theres such a fine line between being successful and crashing and burning. Its so easy to do everything right, but then ruin all of your progress by making one of the all too common mistakes below. 1) Dont be crude If you make obvious and nasty sexual innuendoes, you arent being a turn on, youre being a pervert...unless youre a girl (then its ok). 2) Dont ignore body language Over 65% of communication is non-verbal. If you arent actively looking at the way their body is shifting or what the persons eyes are saying, youre going to miss a lot of obvious signs that say "Im into you, keep talking."...or..."Youre a freak, and I dont want you around a second longer." 3) Avoid being overtly slick Its fine to act cool, but dont go overboard. You wont seem like yourself...and thats not attractive. 4) Dont be silly Flirting should make your target feel sexy and wanted, not entertained. You want to be perceived in a sexual way...not as the funny guy or girl. 5) Dont be excessively cute If you act too cute (unsexy), youll be seen as an innocent and nice person. Thats great if you want to be just a friend, but not for anything more. 6) Cut your losses if its obvious your actions arent appreciated If your flirtations are clearly visible and you arent being flirted with back, its time to pack it up and move on. 7) Dont show fear Insecurity is perceived as a terribly unattractive sign of weakness. If you want to get your target to take you seriously, youve got to hide your nerves. This means no...stammering, fidgeting, wandering eyes (off into the distance), wavering voice, etc. 8) Avoid being overly touchy feely...unless youre a girl This is specifically aimed at the guys. Its not appropriate to grope or touch a woman unless you know she likes you. If you arent sure that shes into you, its ok to lightly touch her shoulder or graze her arm...but thats it! Do not put your arm around her waist or constantly touch her shoulder or body. This will freak her out and make her feel terribly uncomfortable around you. Article Source: http://www.articlecube.com |
